Mystery Picture

Let’s see how good you are at identifying something close-up.

Any idea what the above picture is of? Any thoughts? Any wild guesses?

Is it from (to quote an oft-used question that second most popular in the game “20 Questions”) an animal, vegetable or mineral?

Here’s a hint, I took this photograph at Queen’s Hospital in Honolulu, but you might likely find something like it elsewhere on the island.

Give up?

Okay … here’s the larger picture it was taken from.

Those are plumeria flower buds. See how easy that was? Didja get it? Didja get it?

Yes I did get it! Neat how the black and white photo took out any context to be gained from color. Very neat... I do miss the flowers in Hawaii. Mainland blooms just don't compare.

I thought it was the center of a flower, but didn't know which one. You are so good with a camera!
